Join our Stewardship staff for a rewarding day at the Lower Middle Fork Complex as we work to remove invasive ivy and support the health of this vibrant floodplain forest. This 12.44-acre property, protected by Whatcom Land Trust in 2017 through the generosity of local landowners, lies along the Middle Fork Nooksack River and plays a vital role in salmon recovery. Its side channels, mature cottonwoods, cedar stands, and conifer uplands provide critical habitat for spring Chinook and winter-run steelhead. Surrounded by several other Land Trust conservation sites, this complex helps form a connected corridor of protected lands where salmon, wildlife, and river processes can thrive.
What to Expect: Walking on uneven ground, removing Ivy.
How to Get There: We will meet at the Whatcom Land Trust Office at 8 am and carpool from there.
